Korean Drama The Killing Vote is an unpredictable thriller
Story
When criminals are let free, as the law is unable to punish them, a Dog Masked persona who streams online, asks all adult citizens to vote whether the criminals are deemed to get punished and eventually get the death sentence. And if the percentage is more than fifty, the Dog Masked takes matters into their own hands. On the other hand, the police are working hard to stop them.
Korean Drama The Killing Vote is a mystery thriller that focuses mainly on a criminal case that took place some years ago and is connected to the killing vote.
The drama, hence, does a great job binding everything together, with interesting characters that aid a lot to the entertainment, when the plot starts getting stuffy.
The ending, in addition, was nicely handled overall, even though it didn’t shy away from sacrificing its characters with questionable results.
Still, the story was quite intriguing and the mystery hard to crack.
